I just got a message from Judy and Brian from WEVL that longtime WEVL programmer Cap’n Pete died (apparently due to foul play) on Wednesday. Host of Capn’ Pete’s Blues Cruise every Friday night, his on air stories were even more enjoyable than his song selections. I feel very privileged to have known him personally. He was such a generous, kind person that it’s hard to imagine that anyone would want to hurt him. I don’t think I have heard a more infectious laugh than his, and it saddens me that I will never get the chance to hear it again. His loss will certainly be felt by all that knew him on and off air. Please keep his family in your thoughts.
